31 | By Love For Love

The Trinity is the fountainhead of reality and the mystery at the center of all things. And so it should go without saying (but it often doesn't) that the Church only makes sense when it's explored in terms of the triune God. In this episode, Blaine and Anthony start with the Trinity and survey salvation history to put the life of the Church in context. From the love of the Father to Covenant Theology, Dionysius the Areopagite's vision of creation to Russian Monastaries founded on perichoresis, this conversation lays the groundwork for a fruitful investigation of the Church.Where to ConnectMount Vigil has come to an end but you can still connect with Anthony and Blaine at their respective blogs:Anthony - Sun TongueBlaine - The Paradise KingMentioned in this episode:Scott Hahn A Father Who Keeps His PromisesNT Wright The Resurrection of the Son of GodBruce Shelley Church History in Plain LanguageMetropolitan Kallistos Ware The Orthodox WayBishop Robert Barron Word on FireIan McFarland Word Made FleshJames Torrence Worship, Community and the Triune GodThe WandererGilgameshHans Urs Von Balthasar Cosmic LiturgyAthanasius On the IncarnationRob Avis Building Your Permaculture PropertyChristopher Wright Knowing Jesus Through the Old TestamentThe Paradise KingEvlogetaria for the DeadStephen DeYoung The Religion of the Apostles
